The Complete Ripping Yarns

" 'Six scripts from the demonic imaginations of Michael Palin and Terry Jones which defy the coldness of the printed page and read magnificently' Daily Telegraph * '...you'll thrill to the story of the rise from bullied to school bully in Tomkinson's Schooldays. You'll fight back tears at the stirring exploits of the intrepid British officer who wouldn't lie down in Stalag Luft 112B, much to the annoyance of the other prisoners, who were all for the quiet life. Then feel the chills run up your spine as the bodies pile up in Murder at Moorstones Manor and The Curse of the Claw.' Manchester Evening News * 'Truly hilarious' Los Angeles Times Book Review * 'It is a tribute to the zany wit of the Python Loonies that Ripping Yarns grips from the top of Tomkinson's Schooldays to the Curse of the Claw' Jerusalem Post Magazine * '...needless to say they are all very funny. They must be funnier on screen (when are we getting them in the colonies?)' Evening Standard, Palmerston North, New Zealand"
